Elderly Rule in Europe
A. Seen from afar, Europe looks like an "elderly rule", an American newspaper reported in 1963. Europeans were young in years and outlook (their median age was just 32). But their leaders included the 87-year-old Konrad Adenauer in Germany; 70-year-old rulers in Spain and Portugal; Charles de Gaulle in France (then 72, and destined to hang on to the presidency for six more years); and the baby of the bunch, Britain’s 68-year-old Harold Macmillan, who was soon to quit as prime minister.

[简答题]In the long period from 1500 to 1800, western European nation-states were all influenced by a set of ideas. known as mercantilism. (111) Mercantilist doctrine and institutions were important because they were held by practical businesspeople and heads of stare who strongly influenced public policy and institutional change.
The primary aim of mercantilists was to achieve power and wealth for the state. To generate an inflow of gold or silver through trade, the value of exports should exceed the value of imports. And the state could attain great power only if political and economic unity became a fact. (112) If all the materials necessary to foster domestic industry were not available they could best be obtained by establishing colonies or friendly foreign trading posts from which such goods could be imported. And a strong merchant marine could carry foreign goods, thereby helping to secure favorable trade balances. (113) Mercantilists believed that these means of a
